Jackalope Digital LLC; München; Hybrid; EUR 90.000 - 130.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

STARK is seeking a System Architect to provide the central architectural backbone for all projects. You will bridge high-level architectural definitions with project execution, ensuring consistency, technical integrity, and scalability across the organization.

Collaborate with the Central Systems Engineering and PMT teams to ensure toolchains and standards support the architecture, promote traceability, and drive consensus among diverse teams.

Qualifikationen

• Degree in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related technical field.
• 3-5 years of experience in Systems Engineering or System Architecture roles within complex product development environments.
• Strong knowledge of systems engineering frameworks (e.g., V-Model, MBSE), industry standards, and the product development lifecycle.
• Experience with architecture, requirements, and PLM management tools.
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to translate central architectural guidance into actionable operational practices.
• Collaborative, a problem-solver, and a confident communicator capable of driving consensus among diverse teams.

Aufgaben

• Define and evolve the overarching system architecture, ensuring consistency and compliance across all programs.
• Support project teams in applying architectural blueprints, functional breakdowns, and methodologies to their specific projects.
• Align top-down architectural requirements with bottom-up subsystem designs, ensuring traceability and feasibility.
• Establish and govern interface management processes to minimize integration risks across system boundaries.
• Provide technical guidance on system-level trade-offs, MBSE methodologies, and the V-model lifecycle.
• Collaborate with the Central Systems Engineering and PMT team to ensure that software toolchains and engineering standards effectively support our architecture.
